I'm in need of a new screen protector for my Pocophone F1, but almost everything I find on Amazon here in Mexico looks pretty bad.
I bought a set of Ringke ones back in the day and they were fine, but I already went through 2 of them and I can't find the last one, however they aren't available for purchase anymore.
I read in a couple of places that iPhone 11/XS Pro MAX (what a mouthful) protectors work fine, but I thought it would be a good idea to ask around here if anyone has tried it and how it went.
I hope you guys can help me gain some insight, thanks!

Edit: Whoops! Now that I think about it this post maybe should've been posted on the accessories forum .
Sorry about that mods, please move it according to your decision.

But is that because you bought the kind that has a shaded earpiece/camera area or is it something else?
currently using 11 pro max tempered glass, its working perfectly, speaker grill and notification LED is aligned well enough.

Haha, it just seems like you would have heard more about this technology if it was really good! So, what was your experience with it? Was it hard to apply, or it didn't protect from scratches??

Interesting. I would still feel kinda weird about it.
Maybe it works. Hell liquipel is anano as well and that works..

Ok. I checked my gmail history for this purpose
It was end of 2012 and the name the thing was "Crystalusion Liquid Glass Screen Protector", the price was 10 British pounds with shipping.
I applied it as per instruction but I did not notice ANY difference at all, I also pretty sure that I even forgot that I did it in a couple of days... 2012 means that I had HTC One X at that time and i sold it unbroken in spring when M7 was out. So maybe it actually worked xD jk

Hahahaha, I guess not even noticing/remembering you applied could be seen as a good thing?! Honestly though, I don't know anything about this company/technology so I'm a bit weary to try it out.. Compared to "name-brand" protectors like Zagg and Spigen.
I have order one. I will test it on my old smartphone and upload video on youtube.

I have tried such product long ago for my Samsung S3. I don't find it that helpful. In fact my screen got scratched even after applying that, within one month.
I would say, this product is a gimmic. Mostly, all current device comes with Gorilla glass. So this protector acts like a polish, thats all.

Yeah, I also read that you need to re-apply the product every year or so, which I just don't feel like doing. I'd rather go with a tempered glass protector with a lifetime warranty. Get my money's worth!
I have tested it, and it is does not work.
I applied it on half of screen and tried to scratch the phone. There is no different part of screen with applied Kristall Liquid is scratching the same as part of screen without Kristall Liquid. The same finger prints are the same on both parts of screen.
In my opinion it is waste of money.
I make some video but quality is not the best. maybe later I will upload it on youtube.

Kristall liquid screen protector
The product works great and preserves the natural beauty of your phone. More info at kristallnorthamerica.com.
Brand new on the market abd works better than other nano products that came before. It just won best in show at CES 2016 from a major trade publication
While I personally have never tried any of these liquid screen protectors I know a few years back Linus made a test video after applying some. Pretty sure it was a different brand though.

Here there's the skin from gadgetshieldz it just fits the phone perfectly. You can apply it using an hairdryer for couple seconds to soften the glue!
Buy also the Mi logo stickers because the Mi cutouts of the skin aren't centered with the mi logo on the back of the phone (mi logo stickers are a little more difficult to place because they are really small)

I also oreder it 23/12/2018 and it still did not arrived, I opened the dispute on their page and they responded that the package was probably lost and that they are sending it again, I just needed to confirm my address again so just in case any of you have had similar problem
EDIT: so it just arrived, I applied it and it looks awesome, the phone is not slippy anymore. only downside I see for now is that side buttons are not that "clicky" anymore, other I will test after some time, curious to see how durable it will be
Hello, pls can you post some photos? What is the accuracy of the "skin"?? Thanks
The accuracy is perfect, except for the Mi logo, but it doesn't matter for me. The actual feel is amazing, don't know if you can see it on the picture, but it's not the same phone and the cheap feel of plastic is gone, material and finishing of this seems really good/premium for just under 10$
Whole Google album is here
Forgot to post mine.... sorry! Here it is!

A handful of posters that do not have the phone , posting on a thread of a phone that clearly was hit or dropped. It comes with a case. Tmo offers casemate for $20.

You can tell it was dropped or hit by something. In the sub Reddit thread, someone even pointed out that you could see the impact and when I looked closer at the picture and zoomed in, I could see it also.
I read that post yesterday and was shaking my head. OP: "I woke up and it was like this???" And the top comment seems to agree it could have happened spontaneously. This of course is only possible on reddit.
Why OnePlus used glass black in a phone without wireless charge? Unless the 7 Pro T comes with it so they will use same glass back.

Hell I could see the impact without zooming in, looks like a sharp edge. If he really doesn't remember it he probably drank and ran into a counter.

I don't understand what these people are doing to their phones, I've had 6 phones now and not one has ever been damaged like that, my Nexus 4's battery inflated like a balloon eventually but I was able to replace it. When I hand on my phones after replacing them they've always been in mint condition. Screen protector and a good protective case, that's all you need. I think it's just the iPhone mentality..."Nah, it spoils the looks bruh"

This is hilarious,the guy is hangover for sure,any glass phone won't break itself that bad, he surely hit something while phone was in hos pocket or he dropped it.
Btw ,today going to work i had my phone in between the car seats in a cup holder and i slammed on brakes ,phone flu hitting gear stick and landing on the floor . Nothing happened,i had the case provided in the box.
he woke and it was like that because he dropped it while he was sleeping. He just left out a few key details.
Probably passed out on a bench after a late night outing and the phone fell on the pavement / tar road. Only on reddit. Everything is possible.

My 7 pro just arrived. Coming from 5. Hope it's worth it.
I've had the paint off mine come off on a little spot below the alert slider.
Do you think this is some sort of manufacture defect or just my own carelessness?
I have been using the phone with the case (the one includes in the box) since the very beginning.
Although the case doesn't cover that part, I don't see how I could have caused the paint to come off. If it's just due to some light scratching due to my nails when using the alert slider then I'd be quite disappointed with the durability of the frame, especially since it's made of aluminium.

I should be getting my S21 Ultra any day now (I hope) anyway Ive read that it comes with a screen protector and Ive also read that it doesnt, so does it come with one and even if it does do you guys put another one on top of the one that came with the phone?
And feel free to recommend one too. Thanks

If you're living in the best country in the world the USA then it won't come with a screen protector. Just a thin clear factory film that has a pull tab on the top right hand corner.
Rumor has it Samsung stopped applying screen protectors to it's devices sold in the USA. Because folks were returning the complete phone or creating mass warranty claims due to marks on the plastic supplied screen protector. Thus Samsung ceased it for this market. Wasn't worth the hassle.
I believe the snapdragon variants don't come with the screen protectors (US models) the Exynos ones do (Non-US models) I personally like whitestone glass protectors (they can be a pain in the ass to get on, but once you get the perfect fit it's like they're not there)

I have the snapdragon version which came with a pre installed screen protector (got the phone a week ago). The pre installed protector is pretty good but I replaced it with an amfilm glass protector which is amazing!

They don't come with screen protector. But I'm sure yours will, I feel it inside my bones.
I got my phone yesterday and started noticing specially in white background a slight blue hue when tilting the phone or even by looking straight at it, I can see it at the top and bottom of the screen if looking straight.
My ocd is always kicking in and I can't unsee it.
I've tried different color modes but it's still there.
Am I the only one ? I searched a bit and it seems "normal" in amoled screens but how could it be normal, I've never had phones with amoled but always heard it's the superior screen but to me it's not looking good.
I'm happy with the phone as I couldn't stand anymore my old trusty honor 9 with it's old battery with 3h sot and frequently laggy and outdated software but I must say the honor 9 feels and looks premium where this feels meh. the plastic frame even has some very small dents from manufacturer.
The worst thing is I paid 340€ for the honor when it came out and this for 450€ should be equal or even better in everything.

Really ?
I was thinking of buying a glass protector for it but can't find any.
What I noticed is that the Neo 2 looks exactly the same as the GT 2, even the camera layout.
I'm tempted to buy the ibywind version, looks like the most complete with the frame aligment.

I've been looking on ebay and most listings for cases have Neo 2 / GT 2 in them. Screen size is the same and camera placement looks similiar. If it has GT 2 in the listing and doesn't fit then you should get a full refund at lesat as you can say item not as described

Do you have the same issue with the screen ?
I was going to buy the ibywind glass today as it looks it's the only one with the hole for the selfie cam so it should be the better one I guess. All the other chinese random name brands don't have it for some reason.
I also noticed some of them listing gt neo 2/gt 2 compatible.
But there's some people complaining about the fingerprint sensor not working properly after so I'm holding the buy for now. Hopefully in the upcoming weeks more products and reviews come out.
Looks like this GT series was a fail. Barely any videos, reviews, accessories. The lack of posts in this forum tells the same.
Realme should sell glass protection for their phones as they show a warning about using only approved realme screen protectors but where are they ?

I keep my phone on dark mode most of time and force dark mods where possible, I haven't noticed any issues but then I cannot see any issue with the pictures you posted either so maybe my eyesight is weaker.
I saw that but setting up fingerprint again after new protector should get rid of issues.
I myself am going to wait a little while and just use case + cover supplied until there is supplier based in my country so I don't have to import from china
